multiple buttons to send predefined SMS

Question

Hi guys i am new to programming. I am trying to have multiple button to send different predefined SMS to predefined number. I am not sure how to have multiple setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() as the 2nd setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() gave me error. Without the "buttonSend2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonSend2)" the program works fine.

public class SendSMSActivity extends Activity {

    Button buttonSend;
    Button buttonSend2;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        buttonSend = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonSend);
        buttonSend2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonSend2);

        buttonSend.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        buttonSend2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {

                switch (v.getId()) {

                case R.id.buttonSend:
                     Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                     sendIntent.putExtra("sms_body", "abc"); 
                     sendIntent.putExtra("address", "9909990");
                     sendIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
                     startActivity(sendIntent);
                     break;

                case R.id.buttonSend2:
                    Intent sendIntent1 = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                     sendIntent1.putExtra("sms_body", "def"); 
                     sendIntent1.putExtra("address", "012345678");
                     sendIntent1.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
                     startActivity(sendIntent1);
                     break;
                }

            }
            });
        });
    }

}

Thank you!

Looks like your click listeners were a little confused. Try this:

buttonSend = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonSend);
buttonSend2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonSend2);

OnClickListener listener = new OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {

        switch (v.getId()) {

        case R.id.buttonSend:
             Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
             sendIntent.putExtra("sms_body", "abc"); 
             sendIntent.putExtra("address", "9909990");
             sendIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
             startActivity(sendIntent);
             break;

        case R.id.buttonSend2:
            Intent sendIntent1 = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
             sendIntent1.putExtra("sms_body", "def"); 
             sendIntent1.putExtra("address", "012345678");
             sendIntent1.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
             startActivity(sendIntent1);
             break;
        }

    }
};

buttonSend.setOnClickListener(listener);
buttonSend2.setOnClickListener(listener);
